RE: Will the fawn survive?
Alot of this can be answered by letting us know where you live, what kinds of winters you have etc. More than likely by November, your fawns can pretty much take care of them selves, sometimes even earlier. Usually by Nov momma starts pushing them away anyway. Most yearlings/fawns can make it as long as theresgood food sources and good cover. Theres always a chance that a predator may take a few but thats mother natures way of controlling the herds. If I see a doe with a fawn I try not to take her, and theres nothing wrong with that at all. Its a good practice. Dont let anyone tell you youre doing anything wrong. Its how you hunt, dont change that just because Jow Blow says you should have plugged her. If I would have shot every doe with a fawn that has walked by my stands in the last 18 years of hunting, Id have to say my deer kill would be near 300-500 dear easilly.
